038 - I Feel Rad with Aseem Batra

Jennifer welcomes television producer, writer, and actor, Aseem
Batra. Aseem is best known for her work as a writer on The

of the NBC show, I FeelBad. A small-town Georgia
girl, her transition to a force in the world of television writing
has been nothing short of inspiring.

In this episode, Jennifer and Aseem talk about her entertainment
career, from performing standup and writing her first spec script
to working on a female-focused show with the legendary Amy Poehler.
Aseem discusses the expectations she had going into her pregnancy
and the harsh reality of what actually happened. Aseem talks about
the issues she experienced postpartum, including depression,
anxiety, and coping with her newborn son’s feeding disorder.
Therapy was an incredible resource for Aseem during this trying
time. Finally, Jennifer and Aseem discuss the support system that
working mothers are sorely lacking and the double standard that
comes with motherhood.
